Utilize artificial intelligence for faster issue response and seamless ITSM integration
The data gathering capabilities and the automation, which utilizes artificial intelligence, are the most valuable features. These capabilities help us gather more information and analyze it faster, leading to better responses to issues. The tool is also excellent at integrating with ITSM ( /categories/it-service-management-itsm ) services, providing a seamless alerting system for our customers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The GUI is nicer than all the other graphical interfaces out there."
"Sometimes when we face issues with the new technologies or very old technologies where we cannot enhance the service, they move to work with us directly and start doing some development on this area which is very good for us."
"The topology view which provides a visual representation of a service and quickly allows identification of errors or degraded performance."
"Its ability to monitor failures and to restart a Windows service when it fails."
"eG Enterprise has a single pane of glass for observability and monitoring."
"Single pane of glass to review status of the full environment."
"User session details"
"Enormous capability to monitor Citrix environments."
"The product can scale."
 

Cons

"Needs to improve the networking monitor capabilities."
"Dashboards are difficult to create, and not so useful."
"Application TCP latency is an area with room for improvement, but I believe this is already on the roadmap."
"Back-end configuration is not easy to implement."
"The solution needs to enhance the management dashboards."
"In terms of areas for improvement in eG Enterprise, we are now moving most of our services to the OpenShift platform, and we need a way to monitor even containerized services or any service deployed on OpenShift, but that feature is still not available in eG Enterprise, so it's not good enough for us."
"Their dashboards could use some improvement. The ability to customize them a bit more."
"The interface could be improved as it is not real intuitive. It is not user-friendly."
"I can't recall coming across any missing features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They are aligned with other enterprise solutions."
"The cost for eG Enterprise is almost $100,000 for one hundred and fifty services. It's subscription-based and the payment is yearly."
"There are two licensing options: Perpetual and SaaS-based. The main offering, in terms of what eG prefers to offer, is the subscription-based rather than the Perpetual License. The price could be cheaper."
"You may get some monitoring products with certain licensing you may own. Some of these can take ages to configure and setup, along with needing a license to drive the software."
"The product is very cheap."
"It'd be nice if the price was lower. That would be an improvement."
"eG Enterprise is much cheaper than the other products it competes with."
"We paid about 300,000 Saudi Riyal for the solution and it was quite affordable compared to the competition."
